This lining is alittle less in Awid-th then the externl strips `A'nnd tho-Whose of the lining have n longitndinnlposition relatively with them, the lining being interposed between A' A, and all lir'lnly connected'together by a suitable cement, or by cement and rivet combined.

Abelt thus constructed will be'extremely'strong end durable, far more so than 'those constructed et' leather or an'y other material alone; and besidesl this n rlvnntege,l it possesses'thnt .of preventing -the stretching of a.
